Pitchbend Tuning

Bill Sethares has written a great program for the Atari that does just
what's been described. It's called Microtun and it's great. With old STs
availble for around $100 or less, it's worth having a second computer for
this.

Perhaps he could be convinced to port it to Mac?

Not all tuning systems (especially those used by people on this list!)
are limited to twelve pitch classes.
